> After adding the tests to verify the correctness of the HeapSize calculations the question
of where to set the type of machines that are in the cluster arose.
> I would think that most people are using 64 bit machines but we still need to support
the use of 32 bit. So the way I see it we can solve this problem in two ways,
> we can either have a settable parameter the the user sets when starting up the cluster
or we can try to figure it out ourselves. I think that the second solution would
> be the best, to make it as easy as possible on the user.
> That means that we need to add extra sizes to HeapSize and maybe even to Bytes.
> Thoughts, comments?
